"The House of Representatives had just passed Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. This legislation would permit the agency, without a warrant, to collect from Google and other US Big Tech companies the communications of Americans talking, e-mailing, or texting with non-Americans outside the country—in theory to gather foreign intelligence, but in practice amassing an enormous amount of data on American citizens."

We should be protesting against this! It's both unjust and harmful to all of us. Why must the government spy on our every move? I strive to live peacefully and commit no crimes, yet I am still subject to surveillance. It's absurd to think that just talking to friends abroad subjects us to surveillance under the pretext of fighting "terrorism." They haven't caught anyone significant, and this program seems more about conditioning us to believe that if we do nothing wrong, we have nothing to fear. Just let us live our lives freely! Moreover, as an advocate for free software, I see the TikTok ban as another tool of control, forcing us to conform to their dictates. Fighting tyranny with tyranny is not the solution. 🙈🙉🙊

I've been dealing with dandruff since I was a kid, it's always made me really insecure and always wear a hat. I've tried plenty of different hair products, none seem to work. It's not just my hair on my scalp, it's my beard as well. I'm a 19 year old male (Caucasian), I've been already deciding if I want to go bald or not. I still get dandruff even with a buzzcut and stubble. My skin just sucks. Please feel free to recommend products. I'm trying to improve my life and I find this to be one of the most annoying things.

Hello, whenever I try to download the Windows.iso from Microsoft, it blocks me because I'm using a VPN. I don't really want to buy proxies or anything for this. I tried to download it off public WiFi but it was way too slow. I only need Windows for updating the EC firmware on one of my older laptops.

The Windows.iso is going to be used offline, I don't want to link my IP to it. I mean, I guess since I'm using it offline anyways, I can just download the .iso with my actual IP, install it offline, and then use a USB drive that has the EC firmware/BIOS update on it and use that to flash the firmware offline? (This laptop can only perform firmware updates through a Windows environment)

I feel like in a way, wouldn't I still somehow be linking myself? What if I flash the firmware and later when I connect the laptop to the internet, it somehow has like metadata/signature of where I updated my EC from? I'm planning on using Libreboot with Linux after I update it.

Hello, I've been looking for a song that I used to listen to for the past couple months. It was a rap song with I believe a fat Chicano man in front of a pyramid with a lowrider in front of it (I'm describing the album cover). Had a heart beep style beat like 'bum bum - bum bum bum - bum bum bum - beep' it was cool as shit. The music video is where they speed around in a lowrider I think. I believe it may have been around the 2000s era, maybe the late 90s.The song is in English, I am not sure what else I can say about it

I don't like the guy, I just found this on YouTube and decided to share it

At this point, I'm not even going to bother trying to go on there anymore.
